Hey, all. This is one of my short stories. Can you tell me how it is so far? Thanks!

"Joy, you're not a m-murderer. You're a n-nice k-kind..." Joy's dad said as Joy raised her fire-filled hands.
"SHUT UP!" Joy yelled as she felt the fire in her hands rise in temperature. "You don't love me. You love Luna more than me, and she disappeared when she was five!"
As the fire in her hands got hotter, it's colors turned into a blue-orange mix. Luna, Joy's sister, had disappeared at age five, when she got her powers. Luna didn't want to hurt anybody, so she ran away. The police searched for days. They conducted a nationwide search, but they found nothing. She had covered up her tracks very well. Joy, on the other hand, was very glad. She had power over everyone she met."Don't do this, Joy..."
Joy screamed and thrust her hands at her father. Fire erupted from her palms, and the house was lit up with fire.
Joy's dad sobbed and screamed, trying to climb out of the window. Joy walked out the front door just as the 2nd story collapsed. She could hear her mother's shrieks. The neighbors knew. She started running. With her supplies in her backpack, she went to the only place she knew she could; Her best friend's house.
Jordyn was Joy's best friend. She was a 16 year-old brunette with brown eyes and pink nails with white polka-dots. Joy, on the other hand, was a 17 year-old blond with piercing blue eyes that turn various colors with her mood. She didn't paint her nails. Ever.
"Hello there, beautiful." Joy said.
"Hey gurl! What is it now? Find your sister?" Jordyn said, painting her nails a light shade of blue. "We don't EVER speak of The-She-Devil! Oh, and actually..." Lowering her voice to a whisper, she said "My anger went too far... I killed my parents."
"You WHAT?!? Why? Actually, that doesn't matter right now, I'm sure you had a good reason. We need to hide you first. Hmm... maybe... maybe you can stay with me! You can sleep under my bed, and I can feed you leftovers from meals, and it would be just like a sleepover for a few years! Wouldn't that be-" Jordyn said before they heard one, two, three bangs before they saw the police burst down the door.
"EVERYONE DOWN! GET ON THE GROUND!" said one police officer. Jordyn immediately flung herself down, but Joy was hesitant. She could use her powers, but she risked hurting Jordyn and her parents.
"Get. On. The. GROUND! I'M GINING YOU 'TILL THREE! ONE!" She pounced on the ground. The other police officer handcuffed the girls and their radios went crazy with chatter. The police officers quite foolishly left the room.
"What do we do now? My parents will kill me before the police get to me!" Jordyn whispered loudly. "Don't worry. I've got an idea..." Joy replied.
